Chapter 477 476 Shut Him Up

Li Caifeng, I don’t know her.

Wei Guangde didn't know who the future Queen Mother would be. He only knew that as long as he gave birth to a child for Prince Yu, she would definitely be the Queen Mother in the future.

Having arrived in front of the palace gate, Li Fang immediately shut up and extended her hand to invite Wei Guangde into the palace.

In front of King Yu, Wei Guangde repeated his previous remarks to Li Fang.

"This is a frame-up, Li Fang, send someone to deliver the news to Mr. Xu Ge quickly. They must not let them get what they want."

Of course King Yu knew that this matter was not a trivial matter, and he made a decision immediately without waiting to discuss it with other palace officials.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After agreeing, Li Fang left the dormitory and made arrangements.

Originally, this shouldn't be a place to talk about things, but if you rush the time and take action one minute earlier, the whole thing may be different.

After a while, when Li Fang came back, he also brought Yin Shizhen and Zhang Juzheng.

Li Fang went out to arrange for someone to deliver the news, and heard them waiting outside the inner courtyard, so she brought them in together and briefly told them what happened on the way.

Naturally, the most excited person among them was Zhang Juzheng.

He didn't know that the teacher and Lan Daoxing were really connected. In his opinion, this was framed by the Yan family, which was really shameless.

"You know it all."

When King Yu saw the expressions of Yin Shizhen and Zhang Juzheng, he knew that Li Fang should have told them the news, so he asked casually.

Yin Shizhen nodded, and Zhang Juzheng said with some excitement: "Your Highness, the Yan family is still quiet at this time and wants to frame my mentor. We cannot let their treacherous plan succeed."

Everyone can understand Zhang Juzheng's performance.

Not only because Xu Jie is his teacher, but also his background.

If the backstage fails, Zhang Juzheng's future will be in doubt.

Of course, in Prince Yu's Mansion, he could always be put to great use in the future, but without Xu Jie's support, he would still be a bit inferior.

Now Zhang Juzheng already knows that his teacher Xu Jie has been secretly working for him and wants to promote him to the position of offering wine in the Imperial Academy, so he promoted Wei Guangde to the post of horse washing in the Economic Affairs Bureau last time.

If the teacher is really pushed out by Yan Song, there will definitely be no chance for this wine sacrifice.

From the fourth rank official position, he is already a senior official.

"I have asked Li Fang to pass the news to Mr. Xu Ge, and we will also discuss how to solve this matter."

King Yu spoke.

"A few adults are available for breakfast. If not, you can come to the front and join us."

At this time, Li Fang suddenly spoke.

Since King Yu got up, his breakfast has not been used yet.

As for people like Wei Guangde and Yin Shizhen, they should have come to the palace after using them at home, but they can't let Prince Yu starve all the time just because of this.

"We have already used it, so let's go outside to discuss it first, and then wait until His Highness has finished his breakfast."

Yin Shizhen understood the reason why Li Fang said this, so he immediately answered.

Li Fang brought Wei Guangde in because the matter was urgent.

Now His Highness has asked him to send someone to inform Xu Jie. The resolution of this matter mainly depends on Mr. Xu Ge. Prince Yu's Mansion really can't do much to help.

When the most critical time passed, Li Fang wanted to take the people out first, so as not to affect Prince Yu. After all, everyone was still in His Highness's dormitory.

Soon, Wei Guangde and the others were brought out by Li Fang, and King Yu also walked behind them. He would not eat where he slept.

Along the way, Zhang Juzheng was still sighing.

He knew about Teacher Xu Jie's side. Although manpower had been arranged in all the major yamen in the court, Jin Yiwei's side really didn't have much to do with it.

He had asked clearly before that Lan Daoxing was captured and taken to Fusi, Beizhen.

If it were Lu Bing in the past, he wouldn't have worried that he would be beaten into a trap and framed forcibly. Both the government and the public knew this. Lu Bing was a fairly upright person, and at least he would not use dirty tricks to deal with civil servants.

It's different now. Although it seems that Chengguo Gong Zhu Xizhong is in charge, in fact he doesn't care much at all.

Zhu Xizhong is not only in charge of the Jin Yiwei, but also in charge of the Forbidden City Palace and the Beijing Camp. It is the people below who manage the Jin Yiwei. Who knows who has the final say in the guard now, and how many of those people are from the Yan family.

Anyway, Xu Jie should not be related to Jin Yiwei.

Zhang Juzheng was also secretly regretting at this time that he had not had a close relationship with the people in Jinyiwei before, and he would only be caught blind when something really happened.

After thinking about it, Zhang Juzheng suddenly saw Wei Guangde next to him.

The fact that he knew this meant that there was someone in Jinyiwei.

"Shandai, how is your relationship in Jinyiwei? Can you let people keep an eye on you and not allow people inside to mess around?"

Zhang Juzheng asked.

"This matter is a bit troublesome. Now that the Fusi Prison in Beizhen has been replaced, I really can't do anything."

Wei Guangde sighed: "The news can be passed on, but they are all minions, what do you think they can do.

Besides, since the Yan family took action, they must have opened up the joints, fearing that they would not succeed. "

Wei Guangde's statement made Zhang Juzheng a little frustrated.

However, since the Yan family planned this matter, let alone getting people into the imperial prison, even if they were arrested and taken into the Ministry of Punishment, the Yan family would probably be in control of the Prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and it would be difficult for my teacher to get involved.

Wei Guangde had an idea before, but he didn't want to take it out yet.

It wasn't to embarrass others, but he felt that the trick was really a bit underhanded.

He also hopes that Xu Jie can find a way to rescue Lan Daoxing. After all, judging from the previous situation where Li Fang sent people to follow him, Lan Daoxing and Xu Jie are related.

If you can save people, why bother to harm them?

It’s better to wait.

If Xu Jie really has no other choice and Prince Yu's Mansion has to take action, he will come up with his own ideas.

Moreover, even if it is brought out, the number of people who know it must be controlled to a very small number, but not too many people can know it, it will be too cruel.

Several people left the inner courtyard and returned outside. After entering the room, they asked each other for advice, but there was no good solution. In the end, they could only wait for Mr. Xu Ge to see if they could think of any solution.

Xu Jie, who received the news, was at a loss what to do.

From the moment he received the news from Prince Yu's Mansion, Xu Jie fell into deep fear.

The reason is similar to what Wei Guangde guessed. He does have a deep connection with Lan Daoxing. Even if it wasn't because of his words, Lan Daoxing might still be living a happy and wealthy life in Shandong at the moment.

Lan Daoxing had already created quite a reputation in Shandong, so he lived a comfortable life.

Xu Jie knew that there was such a person through letters with his friends. He knew that there were some methods that could confuse people's hearts, so he became interested and finally tried every means to get the person to come to the capital.

In order to hide this relationship, Xu Jie and Lan Daoxing had very little contact with each other on weekdays. He did not intend to use this relationship unless it was absolutely necessary.

In fact, this is all to lose power in the fight with Yan Song and to prepare a trump card for himself in the future.

But now, Emperor Jiajing obviously no longer favors Yan Song, and he has been running several errands for the emperor recently, so he decided to contact Lan Daoxing to completely eliminate the remaining trace of Yan Song in Emperor Jiajing's heart. Think about it.

Now that Lan Daoxing has been exposed, Xu Jie doesn't know if the relationship between him and Lan Daoxing has been exposed. If this is the case, Yan Song will never let go of this opportunity.

Just as Wei Guangde thought, as long as Lan Daoxing can't survive the torture of Jin Yiwei and is recruited, what should he do?

Then he could only find a way to take action before the Jin Yiwei tortured him, but he really didn't have any spies among the Jin Yiwei.

As for the reason, it was naturally because the former Lu Bing was not someone who framed officials in prison to gain credit.

With Lu Bing here, the officials really don't worry about being framed.

As soon as Lu Bing died, Xu Jie really wanted to intervene in Jinyiwei, but the time was too short and there was no time to make arrangements.

Who knows if the senior executive of Jinyiwei you win over will sell you out later and regard him as a stepping stone to your career.

That's Jin Yiwei.

What should we do now?

Xu Jie had temporarily put down the work at hand and was pacing back and forth in the room, thinking hard about how to solve the situation.

This is not a matter of framing or not, but that he is really involved.

After going through it in my mind, I really couldn't find anyone who could reach into Jin Yiwei among the resources at hand.

The next moment, Xu Jie's eyes changed from hesitant to firm.

If Prince Yu's Mansion could receive the news, it must be through Lu Yi's hands.

As Lu Bing's son, Lu Yi must have received the resources left by Lu Bing after his death. Moreover, he himself served in the Jinyi Guards, so he should be able to intervene.

Thinking of this, Xu Jie couldn't help but regret that he didn't communicate with Lu Yiduo after learning the news, and missed the opportunity to intervene in Jin Yiwei.

I don’t know what I was thinking at the time.

Thinking of this, Xu Jie sighed secretly in his heart and could only ask Prince Yu's Mansion to come forward to solve the problem.

But, how to solve it?

After all, Lan Daoxing's matter has now turned into an imperial case. No matter what, the result must be explained to Emperor Jiajing.

It’s better to contact Prince Yu’s Mansion first.

With a calculation in his mind, Xu Jie did not delay. Instead of sending someone to deliver the news to Prince Yu's Mansion, he went there in person.

He did not enter Prince Yu's Mansion, but went directly to a nearby restaurant.

When everyone in Prince Yu's Mansion was helpless, a young chamberlain came over in a hurry and whispered a few words to Li Fang. Li Fang's expression only changed slightly for an instant before returning to normal.

He nodded and whispered to the waiter: "I understand."

After waiting for others to go down, Li Fangcai whispered to King Yu: "Your Highness, the news just came that Mr. Xu Ge is here."

"Come in person?"

King Yu was slightly surprised and asked.

"yes."

Li Fang replied.

Naturally, Yin Shizhen, Wei Guangde and others heard their conversation.

Wei Guangde knew clearly in his heart that Xu Ge was probably helpless, otherwise it wouldn't be like this.

In fact, he could guess a little from the frown on his face, but he thought that Zhang Juzheng might not be selected as his successor by Xu Jie, so he might not know the full strength of Mr. Xu Ge, so he didn't say much.

King Yu looked around at the people in the room. This time they were not in the courtyard of the study hall, but in a small courtyard close to the inner palace. He did not summon Tang Ruji here, but arranged an errand for him to leave the palace. work.

"I'm afraid Mr. Xu Ge doesn't have any regulations. Think about it, is there any way to solve the problem at hand?"

King Yu said to them, "If not, then you have to meet Mr. Xu Ge to talk about the situation, discuss a charter, and see what should be done."

After King Yu finished speaking, Yin Shizhen looked at Wei Guangde, then at Zhang Juzheng, and said with a wry smile: "You two, what can you do?"

Well, his question first revealed that he had not thought of a solution.

And Zhang Juzheng shook his head with a sad face when facing Yin Shizhan's question. He didn't want to say anything now.

It's not that he didn't think of making trouble in Jinyiwei, but now that things have come to this, how to solve this matter properly is the most difficult.

The imperial case, which has been registered with the emperor, must have an explanation, and it is impossible to use the tactic of procrastination like other cases.

The fact that people were arrested and sent to the imperial prison actually shows that Emperor Jiajing tends to believe that Lan Daoxing deceived the world and stole his reputation, and dared to deceive him.

In this way, Wei Guangde was the only one in the room who didn't speak.

And Prince Yu, from the beginning, cast his eyes on Wei Guangde, hoping that Wei Guangde could come up with a solution.

Well, in the past, Prince Yu's mansion relied on Gao Gong, and Chen Yiqin could sometimes think of a solution. Now it seems that only Wei Guangde can be relied on.

"There is definitely no perfect way."

At this time, facing the eyes of everyone in the room, Wei Guangde couldn't remain silent.

Yes, at this time, Zhang Juzheng and Yin Shizhan also looked at him, waiting for him to speak.

However, Wei Guangde's first sentence made Zhang Juzheng's face show a hint of surprise.

Wei Guangde has a way.

Although it is also revealed in the words that this method seems to be imperfect and has hidden dangers, it should be able to solve the current problem.

"As long as the current difficulties can be solved, we will think of a way to deal with the development of the situation later."

Prince Yu spoke at this time.

Wei Guangde glanced at Prince Yu, and then he said hesitantly: "Things cannot be delayed, and delays are prone to change."

Wei Guangde paused here, as if it was difficult to speak.

Prince Yu had already clenched his fists, staring at Wei Guangde without blinking, waiting for his subsequent words.

And Zhang Juzheng on the side was similar to him, waiting for Wei Guangde to give an answer, although it seemed that it was not fair.

Wei Guangde gritted his teeth and felt that he had performed well enough. If he continued, he would fail. He looked up at Prince Yu, then at Li Fang, and then said, "Then let him shut up."

"Shut up?"

At this time, everyone had a hint of doubt in their hearts. How could he shut up after entering the imperial prison? Was it possible to shut up?

Only Li Fang knew what Wei Guangde meant after a brief confusion. He wanted to kill him to silence him.

No, it should be suicide out of fear of crime.

Now, only Lan Daoxing's suicide can solve the current troubles before he speaks.

Yin Shizhan and Zhang Juzheng probably didn't know about the relationship between Lan Daoxing and Xu Jie, so this is the case.

Thinking of this, seeing that Prince Yu was still confused, Li Fang quietly leaned over to Prince Yu and whispered a few words.

Prince Yu's eyes flickered and he understood the meaning of Wei Guangde's words.

He was an insider, so he naturally knew the reason for Wei Guangde's reaction just now.

After all, although Lan Daoxing was an alchemist favored by Emperor Jiajing, he was Xu Jie's man after all, and was also on his side.

Even if Prince Yu disliked alchemists, he still had a little tolerance for those on his side. Even though he had already made up his mind that he would never let them go after he came to power, after knowing the relationship between Lan Daoxing and Xu Jie, he naturally did not fall into this category.
